Good for Eric. What kind of CEO trashes his own employees (and the product which he now owns) in public like this? It's a good thing Musk wants to reduce headcount because it's hard to imagine anyone taking an offer from Twitter a

What a fascinating trainwreck this has been to watch, and we're barely past the two-week mark.

I've seen some comments saying that this is all delayed fallout from the Luna/Terra collapse last spring, it's just that FTX had the means (its own token that it could pump and move around its own entities) to paper over the

Feels like the writing was on the wall almost as soon as they launched. It seems telling to me that Stadia couldn't get any traction even during one of the most protracted GPU shortages/crypto manias in history; connectivity requi

The margins on everything Teenage Engineering sells must be insane. Thinking in particular of their "computer-1" itx case which is a handful of pieces of unbent sheet metal and commodity parts, all for a mere *$195*.

The objection was absolutely "global warming isn't real" for literally decades. Only more recently, now that that the evidence is too overwhelming for those with even the slightest shred of integrity to ignore, has the argu

Clever, but this solution feels like the space pen to base64's pencil. :)

That was so icky and I'm glad Radon didn't let the remark go unanswered. It's hard to take Amjad's apology seriously given the continued verbal gymnastics seeking to paint himself as the victim.

Presumably the bronze sculpture was still produced with the authorization of the artist in a limited series and thus still represents their original work and intent. I think the key difference is that viewing a sculpture doesn't implic

I find it difficult to believe that you are truly "not smart enough" if you've made it this far in university. Is it possible that you have an undiagnosed attention disorder or similar holding you back? If your school offers
